<P><FONT SIZE=2>I have a similar problem, which may be related. On my machine, Outlook hangs for about 5 minutes with an hourglass symbol, then comes up normally, but Spambayes automatic filtering does not start. However, I can filter manually, and if I wait a couple of hours, the automatic filtering starts working again.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>A couple of clues which may be helpful: I recently started getting "mailbox full" messages from the sysadmin for no apparent reason, and a password box keeps popping up for "Personal Folders" when I go to the "training" tab on the Manager dialog.</FONT></P>
